Not only does the Mayor of Ipswich, Paul Pisasale have the biggest collection of coffee cup sets in the nation, he has been recognized by the Guinness Book of Records for having the biggest collection of its type in the world. He has outpaced previous record holder Michael Millerick in the USA who has a mere 220 cup sets. Just looking at the collection, which is housed in display cabinets in his Ipswich City Council office gets the senses going - you can almost smell the coffee brewing.
